Here's a smaller unit composed of elements of Teresh and Sheklesh warriors.
These are Wargames Foundry figures once again.
It has been theorized that the Sheklesh, who are also mentioned by the Hittites, originated from Sicily.
However, as usual for things related to the Sea Peoples, there is little proof of this.
In any event, they spelled trouble for Egypt and Ramses II.
Meanwhile, they are ready for their appearance at Historicon!
Your Sea Peoples look great!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Phil!
DeleteAnother lovely unit, the yellow and green kilts really make them stand out.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Donnie! Glad you like them!
DeleteLovely work Peter. With a name like Sheklesh you wouldn't have guessed Sicily as a possible place of origin.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lawrence. If you know some German, makes me think of Schrecklich, which is how I am sure the local population viewed a visit from these chaps!
DeleteIt certainly feels like these Sea Peoples are invading again, very nice :-)
ReplyDeleteLock up yer women and yer sheep!
DeleteNice work, although I have no expertise in the period.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joe!
ReplyDeleteAnother fine unit and let's hope they do well in their first outing at Histricon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steve. I suppose it depends which side you play on, eh?!
